Normally I'm not a fan of apocalyptic stories or zombies, but the unique POV of the domesticated animals is what absolutely sold this book for me. The themes of nature, evolution, and an animal's perspective of the human condition were well interwoven throughout the story, giving it a surprising amount of depth to a story whose main character's named is Shit Turd. 

If you're sensitive to animals in peril or animal death, this really isn't going to be the book for you.
